What is the difference between a focal point and a focal length?

• The focal point is the distance from the lens, while the focal length is the convergence point of light rays.
• The focal point is always located behind the lens, while the focal length is in front of it.
• The focal point refers to the size of the lens, while the focal length refers to the type of lens used.
